Everyone, including the prophet Mako, thanked 'Wrinkled Skin' as they left the bungalow.
Apparently, it was this 'Wrinkled Skin''s' ability to bring the essential gentleman's attire into the nightmare dimension.
The reason why the ordinary team was easily defeated before was largely because they had no costumes.
Many of their abilities, including the removal of restrictions that could greatly increase their combat power, cannot be used.
The establishment of the organization is entirely dependent on the skin. Although it allows everyone to develop different diseases later, as the foundation of a gentleman, the skin is indispensable.
Nowadays,
Such a team actually obtained gentleman's clothing in the depths of the nightmare, and all members were complete.
When Catherine saw this scene, the smile that was always on her face disappeared briefly, or rather, she felt a real sense of threat from this group of people.
As for the 'wrinkled skin', it also reveals its true appearance.
He took off his pajamas, revealing a rather exaggerated pear-shaped figure.
All the thick skin and flesh are concentrated in the belly area, and the wrinkled skin on the body hangs freely like a multi-layered skirt, like a flesh-colored princess dress.
The skin on his body is inexhaustible. If the team members' clothes are damaged in battle, they can get supplies directly from him.
In a way, he can be considered Zion's chief tailor.
The prophet Marco came to Wrinkled Skin and bowed with his back to him: "Thank you Mr. Spacey for your contribution to the organization. We will do our best to eliminate the source of the nightmare hiding here."
Wrinkled-skin Spacey's voice vibrates from deep in his throat, as if there are layers of skin hanging between his vocal tracts.
"The First Gentleman is the real contributor. A 'substitute' like me is relatively freer... Let's start exploring this area. Once I'm sure the source of nightmares is hiding here, I will 'occupy' it."
Besides, you don't have to worry too much about my safety.
Although I didn’t get elected as the “First Gentleman” that year, at least I made it to the final round and lost to Claude.”
As soon as the words fell,
Wrinkled Skin. Spacey peeled off the layers of wrinkled skin on his body and took out a sewing needle that looked like a rapier.
When everyone saw the sewing needle, they instinctively felt a dull pain on their skin, and even the clothes they were wearing tightened unconsciously.
Wrinkled-skinned Spacey used to be the same as Yi Chen, a candidate for the 'First Gentleman' in the previous session. His skin content reached 100% and he was perfectly adapted.
Only to be defeated by the current No. 1 gentleman in the final screening round.
The defeated Spacey voluntarily stayed in the Residence of the Godskin and assisted the First Gentleman in his work... But after Claude was fully capable of the job of the First Gentleman, Spacey moved behind the scenes to be responsible for the assessment and selection of clergy and the work of the Director of Tailoring.
Although he failed to be selected as the first gentleman, he never gave up his research on skin disease and self-exploration.
To the extent that he has completely integrated the concept of leather into his consciousness, he no longer needs clothing, he can become leather himself... In some aspects, his attainments in leather are even higher than the First Gentleman.
that's all,
After all team members adjusted their suits and sleeves and hems to suit combat style, they officially began their exploration of Nightmare Town.
When we arrived at the entrance of the town along the main road, a resident with a strange appearance was also walking towards us along the main road.
Rosemary, wearing a red suit and a flame tie, raised her right hand, intending to burn the opponent's body directly, but was stopped by Prophet Marco.
"Don't worry. There is a different nightmare aura around him. Maybe it is related to the source of nightmares. Let's see what he wants to do first... Maybe we can find the location of the source of nightmares in advance."
As the other party walked out of the thick fog, his image appeared under the light of the street lamps.
It turned out to be a 'resident' who was also dressed in a suit and tie, with a badge of the gentleman's hall hanging on his chest. His head had been transformed into a radio, with several different types of antennas inserted on top of his head, and his eyes were made into knobs for frequency tuning and volume control.
In his arms was a lottery box.
Free up one hand, extend the antenna above your head, and adjust the frequency and amplify the volume.
His mouth slowly opened during this process, and a cute and obedient female voice came out:
“Welcome to Nightmare Town. I’m Catherine, the person in charge here. Based on your performance and personalities as you deepen your dreams, I have arranged different nightmare journeys for the six of you.
The six cards in the lottery box correspond to six different iconic buildings in the town. Please go to the corresponding location according to the card you drew, where you will be greeted by a professional tour guide.
Let me tell you a secret, one of the tour guides is me. Let’s see who will have better luck among you.
In addition, the guide will only appear if you follow the rules and go to the corresponding area alone. If you act in a group, I will not provide the relevant guide service.
so… "
Before he finished speaking,
A flash of lightning suddenly flashed among the team, corresponding to Kimberly Cabrera in a metallic suit, who almost twisted the gentleman's head off in an instant.
The right hand that had turned into liquid metal was inserted into the neck, the radio completed the docking, and traced back to the source of the received signal.
But it was still a step slow.
Kimberly looked helpless and shook her head to the team members to indicate that the tracking had failed.
Bang!
There was a snap of fingers in the team.
The head in Kimberly's hands and the headless body beside it turned to ashes in an instant, but the six cards collected in the lottery box were not burned and scattered all over the ground.
Prophet Mako stepped forward and crouched in front of the scattered cards.
He rolled his eyes and slowly moved his palm among the six cards... Suddenly, he seemed to sense something, and the Tong Kong fell back to its original shape, and his index and middle fingers also picked up a card.
The above corresponds to the location of the city center - Dream Church
…
It took the team of six less than five minutes to arrive in front of the church in the center of Nightmare Town.
Since it violates the rules of the game, there is naturally no so-called tour guide here, let alone the source of the nightmare.
But the team's purpose is very clear.
When Prophet Marco approached the huge door of the church, a physical spiritual force gushed out, so strong that it instantly knocked the door open, and the metal door hinges were almost broken.
The residents who were praying inside had no time to react before they were all bathed in flames.
Rosemary of the Purge Squad is best at cleaning up the weak.
Not all of it was burned. The priest at the altar suppressed the burning of the flesh through some means... This situation aroused Rosemary's interest, and she prepared to go forward and burn it up close.
whoosh!
A thin long substance shot out from the team, which was the "needle" in Spacey's hand.
It pierced through the priest's belly, carrying his body and nailed it to the center of the statue.
The next second, his skin was completely sucked into the sewing needle, and the exposed flesh turned into useless tiny pieces of flesh and fell to the ground, completely dead.
The church emptied,
Next comes the team’s key action.
Prophet Marko walked in the church in a strolling manner, stepping on every floor, his eyes still rolled up, and finally stopped on the bricks near the altar.
"This is the axis of the nightmare space. I'll trouble you with what happens next, Mr. Spacey."
"This process may take a long time, please make sure I am not disturbed in any way."
"no problem."
Spacey came to the location where the prophet Marko was, and with a light move he made the sewing needle on the statue return to his hand, and then inserted the tip of the needle into the ground.
Buzz!
A visible space wave spread across the church.
Immediately afterwards, the floor tiles pierced by the sewing needle slowly transformed into a skin structure, and this skin structure continued to spread outward, as if swallowing up this nightmare space.
This is the real purpose of the Sharp Knife Squad.
They never thought about finding and locking down the source of the nightmare from the beginning.
All you need to do is reach the deepest part of the nightmare and use Spacey's ability to "invade the skin".
In order to stop this behavior, the source of the nightmare must appear in person.
The five members were guarding the church area in different postures, waiting for the nightmare to strike.
